Can I say:

1) Can you make the term/date/deadline 5th April (goods delivered to Warsaw)

or should I say
2) Can you meet the deadline 5th April (goods delivered to Warsaw)
3) Can you manage to deliver to Warsaw goods till 5th April
4) Can you cope with delivering goods to Warsaw till 5th April

Are all the versions correct and clear?

Thanks.

So the word "term" in this context is not correct? But is it clear?

What in the world?! How can a word be clear if it is not correct?

OK

I meant term ˜ date (of delivery) or condition (for delivery) (one of the terms of delivery)

In Polish these words can be used interchangeably in some situations. (term/date and term/condition)

No, you cannot simply replace one with the other. It is a term or condition, but you will have to indicate it as such.

1) Can you make the deadline of April 5th (goods delivered to Warsaw), which is one of the terms of our contract/arrangement/agreement? (This clause could of course also appear in earlier context.)
